Lovebirds

An entertaining and eye-opening relationship book in the tradition of the million-copy bestseller The Five Love Languages

How can two people who love each other not get along?

Most relationships founder not from a lack of love, but from a lack of understanding. In Lovebirds, couples therapist and birdwatcher Trevor Silvester shows how birds of a different feather can flock together.

The quizzes in Lovebirds reveal which of eight birds you are, and which your partner is. Are you a ground bird or a sky bird? A sight bird or a song bird? If you’re an owl, and you spend a lot of time talking to yourself, then how do you get along with a nightingale, one of the great song birds, which directs most of its talking outward? If you’re a swan, and you prefer to stay on the ground, knowing things up close and in detail, then what kind of future do you have with a swift, which trusts its instincts over logic and can live happily in the clouds?

Whimsical and wise, and with charming illustrations, Lovebirds puts a whole new spin on the relationship book.“A solid manual for strong relationships.” —Publishers WeeklyTrevor Silvester is a couples therapist with more than twenty years of experience, as well as a longtime birdwatcher.
